題目列表(包括答案和解析)
US teenagers may be facing a challenge (挑戰(zhàn)) today. A recent survey suggests (表明) that they are less honest than previous generations (上一代人).
The survey was done among 29,760 students at 100 US high schools. The results suggest that in the past year, 30 percent of US high school students have stolen from a store. And 64 percent may have cheated on a test.
However, 93 percent of the students said they were satisfied (滿意) with their honesty. And 77 percent said,“when it comes to doing what is right, I am better than most people I know.”
Some teachers were unhappy about the survey results. Some, however, defended (為……辯護(hù)) today’s students.
“The competition is greater and the pressures (壓力) on kids have increased greatly,”said Mel Riddle, who was a high school teacher and headmaster for 40 years.“It is the pressures that make it easy for students to be dishonest.”
“I think these students are better than other generations,”he said.“I find them more active, better to work with and more thankful for support.”“ We have to create situations where it’s easy for kids to do the right things, ”he added.“We need to create classrooms where learning is more important than having the right answer.”

Performing better under pressure
What is the most stressful thing in school? It is probably exams.1..??????? But some students succeed under pressure,while others struggle.So,why do some students perform better under stress?
It all comes down to dopamine (多巴胺). Dopamine is a chemical in our body that sends signals (信號) in the brain.It has many important roles:affecting memory,attention and how we learn.2..???????
Our brains control dopamine in two ways.It either takes out dopamine quickly,or gradually.Exam success can be linked to how fast dopamine goes back to a balance,according to new research from the University of Missouri,reported Yahoo.
???? 3..?????? If you become stressed,your brain will start to overload (起負(fù)荷) on dopamine.It is like a cup overflowing with water.The quicker you are able to go back to a balance of dopamine,the quicker you can concentrate.4..??????
Researchers found that,during a test,people who slowly got back to a balance of dopamine scored 8 percent lower. That’s me difference between a good mark and a bad mark.
??? But don't fear,there is good news for every student.5..???? So,it turns out that practice really makes perfect.
